WHAT HAPPENED

On 23 September, Sabereen News (KH — affiliated) reported an Iran Air landing in Istanbul despite US restrictions, while iNEWS (KSS — affiliated) relayed Erbil and Sulaymaniyah airports’ statements that their Iran flights continued without a formal suspension notice. iNEWS also relayed the Iraqi News Agency’s explanation that private ground-handling companies contracted to Iranian airlines had declined service because they feared sanctions. These reports address different destinations and service arrangements; none establishes that every Iranian flight into Iraq continued or stopped.

WHY IT MATTERS

The distinction narrows what can be inferred from the channels’ reports: continuing routes at two airports do not answer whether particular Iranian aircraft elsewhere obtained ground services.
